By Thaleigha Rampersad, The Washington Free Beacon Kamala Harris’s campaign took a page out of the Biden White House playbook on Friday, issuing an edited transcript that cleaned up a bizarre comment in which Harris lauded Joe Biden as “a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances.” Kamala HQ tweeted a clip of the remark overnight Friday, shortly after Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, Marine veteran Paul Whelan, and journalist Alsu Kurmasheva arrived back on American soil following a prisoner swap with Russia. But the campaign did not include Harris’s full quote, instead opting for an edited—and considerably less jumbled—version. “Vice President Harris: This is an extraordinary day and I’m very thankful for our president. This is an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and strengthening alliances,” the campaign wrote.Read WATCH: White House press sec can't name Harris' 'biggest achievement' as VP Vice President Harris: This is an extraordinary day and I'm very thankful for our president.

This is just an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances.” Biden’s White House is known for smoothing out the president’s quotes in official transcripts. In December, for example, Biden said during a speech in Las Vegas that he secured “over a billion 300 million trillion 300 million dollars” in infrastructure spending.Read WATCH: Biden accuses Trump of being an ally of the Ku Klux Klan during his presidency The White House transcript quoted Biden as saying “over 1,300,000,000—$1,000,300,000,000.” Harris, like Biden, has largely leaned on teleprompters to deliver remarks since she became the Democratic Party’s presumptive presidential nominee.
